So I got my first Christmas Card in the mail yesterday

...and at first I was confused.
I saw the card in the box, and the return address and thought- Gee- why is this person sending me a card? It's not my birthday or anniversay- this is not someone who would send me a Thanksgiving card... hmmmm. Is it an invitation to something?

Then I opened it and saw it was a Christmas card. Chat Icon

Personally I feel it's a bit early to send them out BEFORE Thanksgiving. I am all for writing them out ahead of time- before the craziness of the holidays begin- but I would hold them aside and not mail them until at least Thanksgiving has passed....

But that's just me I guess! Chat Icon

Wow!! I have mine already but I didnt write them out yet. I was thinking to myself that even December 1st is too early so I may wait until the second week of December.

Wow, that's really early. I buy mine early and write them out a few at a time... but I don't send them out until usually the second week in December.

I'm usually very early but I am purposely waiting this year to see who sends to me on their own. My list is WAY too long and it needs to be cut down!

The only ones I have sent so far are the ones that had to go overseas.

I buy mine at the end of the season, so they are packed away with teh Christmas decorations. I won't even start writing them out untill around the 15th.
My friends' mom used to send all of hers out the day after Thanksgiving. Sometimes it would still be Novemeber when they arrived & it would confuse me when I'd see it in her apartment.

No you aren't! This person was TOO early.
Like everyone said- getting Christmas cards before Dec 1st is a bit much!
I am all for writing them out ahead of time- just don't mail them!

We got one last week!

I have to say, this year, I am READY...we got our pics two weeks ago and just have to address them...which I can very well possibly leave until the last minute!

But anything is better than last year...I think we sent them on 12/22!
